Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Defense Resource Management in the System of Shaping Ukraine’s Economic Security
Abstract
Purpose: To develop a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of Ukraine’s defense resource management system (DRMS) in order to ensure its compliance with the state’s strategic objectives and to strengthen economic security.
Method: A systemic and comprehensive approach was applied, including: analysis of scientific publications and legal documents, development of a structural-logical evaluation framework, use of military-economic assessment of the Armed Forces’ capability development, application of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (Saaty method) to determine weight coefficients, construction of integrated performance indicators.
Findings: The proposed methodology makes it possible to: systematically evaluate the efficiency of defense resource use, monitor and analyze performance over time, support evidence-based decision-making on DRMS improvement, adapt strategic development directions in response to evolving threats.
Theoretical implications: Expands the scientific basis of evaluating defense resource management effectiveness. Introduces a methodological approach combining quantitative and qualitative indicators. Establishes a foundation for integrating military-economic analysis into strategic security and defense planning.
Value: Proposes a unified standard for DRMS effectiveness evaluation. Integrates monitoring, cost analysis, and forecasting into a single methodology. Offers practical value for state authorities, military structures, and research institutions in enhancing defense management effectiveness.
Limitations / Future research: The main limitation lies in the theoretical nature and limited practical testing. Future studies should focus on: deeper analysis of external influencing factors, refinement of the methodology using international best practices, development of integrated automated management systems, application of innovative technologies (AI, blockchain, etc.), strategies for adapting DRMS to emerging threats such as cyber, biological, and chemical challenges.
